I know you didn't say that, but...lol...looky...right after you say 
you didn't say it, you say they have a rationale...lol....I was 
already 10 steps ahead of you. Do you really think that I thought 
you said they had a rationale for it. You didn't say that, but it 
was the natural logical conclusion of what you said, even though you 
were not able to make the next step on your own.

That has nothing to do with it. They have not eaten dogs in the west 
for centuries, and they still do not. They have eaten dogs in the 
east for centuries, and even as they become wealthier they still eat 
dogs in fine restaurants. It has nothing to do with market forces.
